It was great how they addressed some Muppet history. Lilly Tomlin was excited about the prospect of Fozzie Bear being in the house. First Lady Bartlet educated her about Kermit being considered a cross-over from the Muppet Show. lol

I am a big West Wing fan (as well as Muppet fan) and I thought the episode was wonderful. I think the new writers of the show finally brought that goofy comedic element back, showing us that the characters actually enjoy their jobs and have fun. And I'm so happy that the Muppets helped!

-ps- I think Big Bird not speaking was hysterical-- funnier than if he had spoken, in my opinion.

Did anyone else notice "Maria" on Law and Order, following the West Wing? That makes the 3rd Sesame cameo I've seen on that show...Gordon played a judge, Luis was a lawyer, and Maria played a witness..

i had church last night...and my vcr is on the fritzzle...so if anyone did tape it...and has a webcam...can u record it on ur webcam as a wmv...and then e-mail me the file (as an attachment)at KermitDFrog@ucd.net ...it would GREATLY be appreciated...

I just ffwd through the whole episode until I got to Big Bird's part and then watched from there. I thought it was odd that a show that is based in reality would still keep up the magic that the Muppets are real characters.

I wish I would've watched Law & Order too.......I LOVE MARIA! But I really can't stand Law & Order.

I was disapointed that we didn't get to see any puppeteers, but they don't really make a habit out of showing them even in behind the scenes stuff so I guess that makes sense. Someone who taped it, what's Kevin saying in the background when the main characters are talking about the actual show plot? It sounds like some funny ad-libbing.
